21 MELROSE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 21 MELROSE CLOSE sales between November 1995 and May 2019 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the May 2016 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 21 MELROSE CLOSE be worth now?

The 29.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 MELROSE CLOSE of £235,000 on 10th May 2019. For the value to have increased from £235,000 to £304,934 over the five years and ten months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
